AVA “Members’ Exhibition” 10/22

AVA Members’ Exhibition
October 8 – November 5, 2022
This group exhibition highlights the creative talent of AVA supporters and connects community-minded artists throughout the Columbia Pacific Region. Three Juror’s awards were given.

Excerpt from Juror Lucien Swerdloff’s statement: Christine Eagon’s “Lunch Counter” (pigment print) is a somewhat surreal, black and white photograph of a, not yet open, lonely diner, perhaps waiting for the morning (or lunch) crowd to come in, sit on the sleek stools and have a cup of coffee in a stainless steel, faux leather, subdued, people-less Hopperesque world. The image is both eerie and inviting at the same time. Full statement at https://astoriavisualarts.org/gallery-members-exhibition-102022

  • Monday through Friday from 9 am – 4 pm.
  • First Tuesday Art Walks: 5 – 8 p.m. October 5th and November 2nd

The Walters Cultural Arts Center
527 E. Main St., Hillsboro OR

Kicking off the Arts Month festivities on Tuesday, October 5th, a new photography exhibition by the Inner Light Photographic Society will be featured at the Walters. The Look Up! exhibition is in essence about seeing. Historically, photography was considered a trick, or sorcery. However, we have come a long way since the first photograph of 1825. Unlike then, almost everyone today has some type of camera. Selfies, snapshots, and temporary imagery has presented opportunities to see the world through diverse eyes. And even though we can all take photos; it takes a specific act to see what is beyond the lens, capture intention, emotion, and feeling of any given moment. Individual Inner Light members have unique ways of seeing, reflected in diverse imagery and media and a wide range of photographic styles. Focusing on ‘looking up’ rather than focusing down or inward on viewing devices like cell phones, artists have captured unique moments around the world.

Artists’ Panel: February 13th from 4-6pm

Inner Light was founded in 1986 by photographer Shedrich Williames (a friend and protege of Ruth Bernhard).  Today, the group includes 22 photographers who work in a wide range of photographic styles and media, from classic black and white landscape to manipulated imagery, from street to semi-abstract photography, from alternative process dating back to the beginning of photography to the latest in digital imaging. All of the members of Inner Light are exhibited photographers, and the group shows together frequently.  The Oregonian, in a review of one of the group’s shows commented: “what makes this diversely profiled group of photographers so fascinating (is) a range of appreciation of the silvery medium and a common search by its individual members for genuine expression.”
